Uzbekistan economy grows 8.3% in first nine months

Uzbekistan’s GDP increased 8.3% year on year in January–September 2026. The National Statistics Committee reports an index of 108.3, corroborated by Prime’s 28 October report.

Industrial production grew 8.1%, agriculture 4.6% and fixed-capital investment 20.1%. The comparable growth rates a year earlier were 6.8%, 3.6% and 15.2%, respectively.

GDP growth in the first nine months of 2025 was 7.6%, indicating acceleration in the latest period. Sector and investment growth rates cannot be added together: they measure different aggregates rather than separate percentage-point contributions to GDP.
